    Logo Poll

    Think it was spotted on another forum you posted this it's remarkably similar to other logos to the point it looks like it was copied.

    Logo Poll

    I don't think there's a periodic symbol with Hp - and peridoic symbol 1 is Hyrdogen. It's a bit of a stretch, hyrodponics is literally the word hydro (Greek for water - which is H20, not H) and ponics which means labour. Hyrdroponics literally means working water. I don't get the reference...

    Social Responsibility & Graphic Design Survey! :)

    You might not be getting many hits. I don't have an social responsibility. It's the client has that. There's only a handful of times I've turned down work in 25 years, one was for a Nazi group back in the early 2000's.

    How to make something like this?

    I'd just draw them as they are. I wouldn't think they are great design wise - this is where I'd have a fully clean one without those edges or grungy details. Then had a grunge effects afterwards as another 'version' of the logo. I can't imagine the grunge version being easy to embroider, but...

    How to make something like this?

    Illustrator is the way to go - as it will be in Vector format - which means it can be scaled to any size without losing quality. Creating in Photoshop usually means it will be Raster format - and the quality can degrade the larger the size it's increased to, depending on initial creation size...

    How to make a print-ready Canva pdf

    Don't use Canva - but they have guidelines for setting up CMYK - utilising bleed - and other things. We stopped accepting files made in Canva - told customers it wasn't suitable for print and if they wanted to use it it's not a problem - but it will probably not print very good quality. And we...

    Logo and business card design

    No - it doesn't work well and is an erroneous workflow.

    Logo and business card design

    I know you're not printing anything. I'll put it like this - I wouldn't practice a piano song on a drumset. Anyway - I haven't seen your brief so I have no idea if you hit your mark or not. But I hope some pointers were helpful.

    Logo and business card design

    I think the details you've improved on - the little things - it is looking better and better with the tweaks you have made. Keep going. But I wouldn't be a fan of the swish - difficulties printing would be a key concern. But should be ok for a fun non-printed project.

    Logo and business card design

    I wouldn't apply for a job using my own company name and stationery... you're applying to work there, are you not? They'd be concerned that you have a side business and wouldn't be focussed on them. If you're applying to be their graphic designer as an outsourced or a freelance business - then...
